I never got second stimulus payment because of the problem CAUSED BY INTUIT. But Turbotax never asked me that and I understand our taxes are to get credited. What gives?

Where are they supposed to ask?

[VolvoGirl · Accepted solution]

Did you already file?  Did any amount show up on 1040 line 30 for the Recovery rebate credit?

There will be a screen with 2 boxes for each round.  If you didn't get one enter a 0 in the box.

Yes you have to enter them or Turbo Tax will give it to you again.  They are not taxable but you may see your refund change when you enter them because Turbo Tax starts out assuming you didn't get it.

When you go through the federal review tab it will ask how much you got if any.  Enter a 0 in the box if you didn't get one.  Or to enter your stimulus payment in TurboTax, type "stimulus" (without the quotes) in the Search box, then click the link that says "Jump to stimulus."

After you have entered your tax information and are ready for the Federal Review, it will be the first question.

If you are trying to trigger it, you can go to Other Situations, answer any questions and click Done. The next automatic selection is Federal Review and it will ask about payments received.

The Recovery rebate credit is on 1040 line 30.  It either adds to your refund or reduced a tax due.

Before filing,  You can preview the 1040 or print the whole return

Thank you!

I'd put this off for several weeks and this problem has NOT been solved for me.  I have not fully filed yet. The second stimulus ($600 max) never got credited to me based on my 2019 taxes and I understood that it was a glitch related to payments to what was not your normal checking account. Line 30 of my draft of form 1040 is blank. I was not eligible for the full amount but I WAS eligible for some. There is NO way that I can figure out how to access a screen asking me if I received a stimulus. The stimulus search and link simply takes me to Federal Review and it just goes through the motions and says, "everything's great!" Please help!

To receive your stimulus payment, complete your 2020 tax return with TurboTax.   At the end of the interview, the software prompts you about your stimulus payment. If you did not receive one, it will factor in as a credit and you will receive a refund.  If you are not able to access the questions about the stimulus payment, please follow these steps:

To edit your stimulus payment information, head over to the FEDERAL TAXES tab on top.  Click on Federal Review, and in the search box on the right, type stimulus.  You can then Jump to stimulus and edit the information.

Here is an IRS link to the IRS that explains how the Recovery Rebate Credit is calculated.  This link  has the latest information about the third stimulus.
